Our interest is focused on the biochemical and molecular interactions between the entomopathogenic fungi (Hypocreales) Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae and M. robertsii and their hosts, including insects (fungi as pathogens) and plants (fungi as endophytes).
Our lines of research include insect host such as kissing bugs, mosquitoes, weevils and phytophagous bugs, as well as plant host such as soybean and rice.
These studies have focused on understanding the metabolic pathway of insect lipid degradation by entomopathogenic fungi, but also include the study of fungal genes inducible by different stressors such as growth in hydrocarbons, insect hemolymph, heat or UV radiation.
In addition, we study the genes involved in the synthesis of fungal secondary metabolites such as toxins and other important molecules in both infective and endophytic cycles, as well as the response of the host's immune system during fungus-insect, fungus-plant, and fungus-plant-insect interactions. We use techniques such as real-time quantitative PCR, RNAseq, protein cloning and purification, gene silencing and expression, electroantennography, and gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry.
